The DH, interleague play, the pitch clock, banning where players can play... When will it end!

Damn. Don't think I can cancel my hotel reservations anymore... Well, load the car up with cold weather gear. Got some snow here in Cincinnati today.

Yeah, I think I read your original post as pulled ahead of the ACC in RPI, as that was the first column listed and I believe how they were ranked. I'd be curious to see how last weekend's results impacted RPI, even though RPI really doesn't mean much this time of year. We really have to see how...

Good company to keep, baseball standings wise, with UVA and Miami. My concern is next weekend. See the poll @GTNavyNuke started for my expectations this weekend. I hope I'm wrong, since I will be there. Hotel rooms are booked...

So, you're saying a conference that knows how to maximize the number of teams it can get into postseason by certain scheduling techniques?

Listening to Hall's pre-game press conference with Wiley on the ramblinwreck app now. Said the injured hitters are ready to go. Missed hearing the first one, but obviously Campbell starting at DH tonight. He also said that Jackson's probably ready to go but he's not playing him tonight and...

I believe I read in a D1Baseball article about him that the coaching staff likes to give Finley a day off after he pitches. Since he is the DH, or now possibly 1B, on days he doesn't pitch, Sunday sets up as the best day to give him a day of complete rest with no pitching or hitting after he...

Wiley on the radio call on Friday and Saturday! Same rotation as last weekend: Brown Friday, TBD Saturday, Finley Sunday. I at least hope they move Finley up to Saturday if there is rain in the forecast for Sunday. Would not mind wins with Brown and Finley, and a rainout on Sunday...

Or walk 18 holes with a golf bag on your back for multiple days in a row. Do college players carry their own bags, or do they have caddies?

Don't care what they're wearing as long as they're winning!

I think that criticism is valid as well, and with many different pitching coaches. And golf. Although there are some that don't consider golf a sport...

Yes it is! I just tried to predict who we were playing and where. I hope we're better than 2-1 at home against Notre Dame to start the ACC season, but our starting pitching... And definitely hope we're better than 0-3 at Louisville, because I plan to be there. Let's Go Jackets! Who else is...

I tried to predict how I think we would do against the teams we play. Home: ND: 2-1, Clemson: 2-1, UNC: 1-2, PITT: 3-0, UVA: 1-2 Road: LOU: 0-3, BC: 2-1, VT: 1-2, MIA: 1-2, DUKE: 2-1 That turned out to be 15-15 in conference. I then looked at where 15-15 would land in the ACC in past years...

Yes they are. And, for all of the accolades as to how great a hitting team we have been, and how much talent we always have, and how many guys we have drafted every year, how many former GT hitters are currently playing in MLB? I can think of Blackmon and Bart. Last I knew, Palka was hanging...

Yes, Finley could have continued as DH even after he was taken out of the game as a pitcher. Unless the coaching staff screwed that up somehow. As gtbeak noted, he did that against Tennessee Tech. My guess is that it was related to the line drive he took during the game. I think some in chat...

Yes, bats slump. Sometimes pitching is ineffective. Tech had multiple GOLDEN opportunities to score runs in the first 2 to 3 innings in the first 2 games and failed. The defense did not help, but was not the sole issue. The issue in the first 2 games was a lack of hitting in critical...

I'm surprised that Campbell is still out. I don't know what his injury is, but I did see him take a rolling tumble after crossing the plate for the second time in the first inning on opening day. Don't know if he tripped over his own feet, or something else, but he was replaced by Senese at 2B...

Looks like we took the matchup of the Tech's 14-13. VT was ranked #1, we were ranked #2. I didn't see it or listen, but the final score would indicate an incredible game.

Are they talking about foot speed, or mental acuity? Asking for a friend...

Perhaps this is what we need so that we don't give up 2 - 5 runs in the first inning every game. I'm excited for the potential benefit!
